Yazawa Kobe Beef West

Overall a good experience. we tried to come to tenryu, and they either rejected us because they were full, we are inappropriately dressed, or maybe they turned us off because our japaners are poor. at least the maitre d asked us if we came to beef and told us another restaurant around the corner that had the same bark and the same owner. the restaurant was yazawa. in yazawa it was casual and the personal spoke English. we managed to blow $700 in chateubriand and filet. the price was high and perhaps not great, but I think that is subjectiv if I don't have any means to find a better value. if I splash the next time, it'll be different. I have to try all the restaurants!

Lowest price at 2500yen for normal 80g kobe beef steak. Taste pretty good but definitely can be better. The staffs are extremely friendly and helpful. there's around 13% tax in total for service and gst.

Great fine dining experience : Near Chinatown and Motomachi shopping district! There are 7 grades available (1 is highest and most expensive at around ¥60k+ Their staff are very accomodating.

The restaurant is nice and good space just outside of China town. I might have had to high hopes for the Kobe Beef and that those expectations were not met. However the food is good, the soup excellent and the beef was good cut. I think we paid about 7500 yen for two people.

The timetable here is wrong. The lunch time ends at 3pm. I came here at 3.20pm and they were closed. But the chef was kind enough to make my takeout order. Burger was delicious though a bit pricey.
